Lawyers’ turn

Date:

Share post:

SHANIQUE MYRIE has already been paid.

Now her lawyers want their piece of the Barbadian pie too.

And once again, the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) will have the last say.

Jamaican attorneys Michelle A. Brown and Nancy Anderson, who represented Myrie during her lawsuit against the Barbados Government three years ago, are one step closer to finding out if that legal team will be paid the BDS$2 million (JAM$121.5 million) they are requesting as legal fees for their work done in the controversial case.

The recent developments, however, have been cloaked in secrecy.

But the SATURDAY SUN can reveal today that lawyers on both sides were part of a special in-camera hearing at the No 7 Supreme Court.

Please read the full story in today’s Saturday Sun, or in the eNATION edition.
